All's Fair in Blood and War (1/3)
Mesoamerican civilizations are often forgotten in discussions of ancient imperialism. Controlling the most powerful empire in central Mexico during the 15th and early 16th centuries, The Aztec Empire grew quickly in territory and influence, largely due to the civilization's religious beliefs and practices. Let's explore how Aztec religion catalyzed The Aztec Empire's bloody expansion through romanticized ideals of war and conquest!
Ancient Aztec religion was undoubtedly polytheistic. Although minute details concerning Aztec gods and goddesses are debated among scholars, Aztec worshipping of hundreds of deities is widely accepted as historical canon. Individuals living within The Aztec Empire likely had patron deities, chosen to reflect personal desires, but two deities held universal importance through The Aztec Empire: Huitzilopochtli, god of war, and Tlaloc, god of rain. Consequently, the Aztecs heavily revered a duality of war and agriculture. Instigating war was viewed as essential in honoring Huitzilopochtli. Maintaining high yields of maize, beans, tomatoes, and pumpkins was viewed as essential in honoring Tlaloc.

In Aztec mythology, Huitzilopochtli led the Aztecs to Tenochtitlan, later serving as the civilization's capital city. Huitzilopochtli demanded constant veneration through violent sacrifice after every war victory and defeat. Aztec warriors who died during battle were believed to be reincarnated as hummingbirds, the highest honor bestowed by Huitzilopochtli. Desiring to please Huitzilopochtli, the Aztecs remained in a state of war that subsequently built an expansive empire through conquering surrounding tribes. Aztec men were raised to become warriors, honoring Huitzilopochtli through fighting until their violent demise. This brutality-centered mindset, deriving from religious idealizations, motivated the Aztecs to conquer central Mexico. In other words, The Aztec Empire's expansion occurred to serve a patron deity of Aztec mythology.

Expansion of The Aztec Empire did occur, in part, from the civilization's selfish desires for power and control, but primary need for expansion remained focused on piety towards Huitzilopochtli. Unlike many European empires' exploitations of civilizations for nationalistic gains, Aztec monopolization over territory proved to be almost entirely spiritual. I guess humans have always had a history of deflecting blame onto others, divine or otherwise, to avoid facing the consequences of their actions.

Problems of an Overworked Librarian #110 When a patron is ranting to you for about half an hour...
Let's not get crafty
So I was checking in books from the drop one day, checking for damage. And I came across the Fifty Shades of Grey audiobook... I thought to myself, "this is a weird texture. Wait where's the plastic?!" Then I realized The plastic audiobook cover was ripped off and the patron had MOD PODGED the cover to the case!
A regular teen patron was banned for a week because last night he got in a fight over Yu-Gi-Oh cards. I tried to diffuse the situation, but he screamed “NOOOOOOOOO!” about 5 inches from my face. Then he pulled his fist back and punched the shelving unit right next to me..... I was so sure I was getting punched in the gut.
